Western Lake Eviction Risk: Lower

Against Parker County at 35.8%, about half of renters here are cost-burdened. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 1/10. Well under the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 1/10.

20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The voucher gap is 21.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Nationally it ranks #59,654 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 15% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Parker County average of 3.8 closely. Average gross rent is $2,065, close to the Western Lake average.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
